Personal statement for University: 

I would like to study Film and Media at university. This is because my career aim involves
becoming a film maker and learning the technical and production techniques necessary to make
it in this industry. One day, I hope to be attending Red Carpet events and viewing the films I
have taken part in creating on the big screen.
I am now in my 3rd year of Film Studies and 4th for Media Studies at college. I couldn't have
picked better subjects to study because learning about the development of our modern society
and making a contribution to that will develop my understanding and experience in the
media/film industry.
At college, in Media studies we created projects like an advertising trailer where we had to
advertise a chocolate bar. We learned marketing and sales skills and the best way to present a
product. Also I designed a magazine and created my own brand where I had to make up
interviews, catch phrases, articles and take pictures of people to pose as our band. I later
edited them ready for our magazines using computer software.
When I moved up to Long Road College I took Film Studies and in my first year we made our own
trailer for a horror film. This was an independent amateur project that I filmed and edited
myself using the college's camera and using final cut to edit. In that course we focused on
Super Hero, World Cinema and more about the film industry. I gained time management,
self-organisation and communication skills as part of this task; involving friends and family
and learning how to set up different types of shot. This expanded my knowledge of
cinematography.
I applied and got a place in the BFI Film Academy which was a fantastic experience. I learned
about different roles and got some real filming on set experience. We were given specific job
roles in the making of our film, mine was the boom operator and the VFX co-ordinator. These
roles were perfect for me as they broadened my mind on sound and how to capture sounds
properly. I also learnt about sound effects within film and how much the film perspective can
be changed just with different music and sound effects. Being the Visual Co-ordinator as well
made me feel like I had even more of a role in the making of the film as I was the only one
who had previous experience with software like Adobe After Effect and Final Cut. As I got into
the Film Academy it gave me a better chance of getting into the National Film and Television
School. I have recently applied for this and also got a place on a week long course based in
London at City and Islington College studying VFX and Animation. I am looking forward to this
as I will be able to gain even more experience of film making and focus more on Visual Effects
which is the area I am most interested in, along with animations.
Outside of college, I work as an Usher in the Vue cinema in Cambridge which allows me to see a
wide variety of films, as well as the practical side of the film industry and cinema going
audiences. I couldn't turn down an opportunity to get behind the scenes of the film industry
as I feel this gives me an insight into how the industry works. I am also aware how film
projectors work and how automatic cycles operate. I have learned the difference between
rendered 3D film clips and ordinary 2D ones. I am now able to understand film marketing
techniques in the real world, and I am able to recognise different types of consumers as well
as the sales approaches used for each one.
I am excited to improve my existing film making skills by going to University, as well as the
type of different job roles within film and media. I hope that taking my degree will help me
to go on to have a successful career in this industry in the future.

How is my careers plan going to address my skills and resources needs: 
 
My Plan with help with my leadership skills as I will be going to Bournemouth and will be working as a part of a team and will have the chance to give my input into films that we are making. This will hopefully build my confidence to be able to interact with anyone and make small talk which will help me build links and contacts. Once I have built up my confident with film making and have enough contacts I can begin to build a film crew which will motivate me to take film making to the next level. By going to Bournemouth will deffiantly be the path that will help me with my disired career. At Art University Bournemouth I will also be learning different software call 'Avid' and 'Mia' which will broaden my mind of different software which is what I need and want, being away from home and in the learning environeent will help me to imropove my time keeping skills and punctuality.  I will need to access transport such as train, and I am going to do this by going to Bournemouth.

P2 and P3 address my indivisual skills and resources which I will combine together to get a career that I want which is with the visual effects industry, if my plan doesn not work out that I will fall back on plan B which is to get an appretatships with the BBC or ITV.

• Able to spot minor problems with detail in film etc
• Good organisation skills
• Creative mind set
• Motivational 
• Leadership skills

For my short term goals, I plan to complete my A-levels at Long Road aiming to get A,B in my Media diploma and a C minimum in Film Studies. After completing these course I look forawrd to going to uni to study Film, preferable editing so possible Visual effects, to be able to go on to uni and get the degree that I would like the grades that I need to get is B,B,C which I am looking forward to get.  Once I get my result I hope to use them to into Arts University Bournemouth to study Visual Effect Design and production.

I would like to study a subject that will expand my knowledge and experience in film making.  I am interested in the post production side of film making and would love to create and design visual effects in film and in the media. After college I would like to go to university to study Visual effects design in production, so I applied for Norwich visual effects and Bournemouth visual effect design and production.

After studying visual effects and university I will be open to a lot of opportunities to enter into visual effect companies, here are some that have looked into.

Escape studio are a VFX industry that create the visual effect for all type of media from film, to animation from model making to making things explode! 

Framestore is a another VFX company that have design the visual effect for films such as Gravity, Avengers and much, much more. 

I am apart of the Facebook group "Film industry network" And "Last minute and short notice film jobs"  There was a post asking for people with any of the skills of being on set such as producer, 1st AD, cinematographer, boom operator etc. I had learnt how to operate a boom operator with the BFI on one of the residential courses so I emailed 'Amrita Jazzmyn' Who is the organiser, funder, producer for this film and requested to be apart of her crew, which she accepted made me apart of her crew, being put on the call sheet and organising foing down for a few days to help out with the shoot but unfortunately I couldn't attend due to un expected course work and education I had to attend.
